Prevent gaschange tank icons from using garbage coords.

Tank icons were shown at incorrect spots on the profile
when the DiveEventItem object held a pointer to a struct
event even after the struct event at that address had
been freed.  When internalEvent is a pointer to freed
memory, internalEvent->time.seconds could have all kinds
of crazy values, which get used in member function
DiveEventItem::recalculatePos to place the tank at bad
x coordinates.

The DiveEventItem(s) no longer store a pointer to memory
that they do not own.  This way, no matter how the path of
execution arrives into slot recalculatePos, we never need
fear that the DiveEventItem will dereference a garbage
pointer to a struct event.

Fixes #968
